Imaging Controversies & Innovations For Your Daily Practice

Location: Hotel Van der Valk Hotel Brussels Airport, Culliganlaan 4b, 1831 Diegem​

Non-invasive cardiac imaging, the cornerstone of our cardiology practice, is a growing and rapidly evolving field, abundantly communicated through social media. This fuels many questions relevant to our daily clinical practice such as how to deal with imaging controversies and what imaging innovations could ultimately improve patient care

This and many more will be covered by an outstanding (inter)national faculty at our Belgian Working Group on Non-Invasive Cardiac Imaging (BWGNICI) annual symposium 2024: 'IMAGING CONTROVERSIES & INNOVATIONS FOR YOUR DAILY PRACTICE'.
